Hi,

   So after many years of issues with the older montage, and now many months with the M, of waiting on Yamaha dev's to offer a solution / alternative for the users like many others and myself.I'm coming to the forums again, hoping to get some interaction and dialogue started regarding the soundmondo issues, where customers simply cannot reliably make a connection and share the same user experience. This is well documented over the years not just with the M, but even the older montage/modx.

We've already established that many have soundmondo working quite well. Yet there are many of us who don't get so lucky. We've also submitted our typical bug reports, contacted tech support, even ideascale requests.

Yamaha these keyboards are not cheap, we both know that, yet we support you guys, because lets face it Yamaha has incredible sounds and are among the best in the business. A real alternative solution for sharing the sounds on the other hand cost's you nothing. What we're asking for is an alternative way to download the User performances.

This is not falling on deaf ears, in terms of the customers  / users, as many of us continue to share the issues they have with soundmondo. We're now at a point  where we've been asking if Yamaha can simply offer us a download option has become stale and old, without any feedback from them.

 

Yamaha please make the user experience equal for all customers. A simple download link with the performances is the answer.

And Yes we are aware there's been a user in the forums who's actually created a link for the sysex, but in many cases, that's the exact issue where these sysex players don't work reliably with our Montage's either.

 

 

Thanks, jon

Hi Yamaha,

            2 months ago, I posted here, and not one Yamaha rep has given any thought on responding. I've purchased two Yamaha Montage M's, you would think after spending over $7500 I could get a simple, hey we're working on it.

Yamaha please give us a response to this issue.

 

Thank you.

Try 'Contact Us' link to reach Yamaha - bottom of page.

Yamaha reps typically don't participate in the forums. Bad Mister, since retired, was an 'exceptional' exception. But you are doing the right thing by keeping the thread alive to bring attention to this important issue.

The link will definitely reach Yamaha support but there is no guarantee that you will get a response. 

You might also consider posting on IdeaScale since that site is monitored more regularly by Yamaha.

Hello,

       Is there a reason why my post was deleted earlier when asking Yamaha a question in regards to my post from 2 months ago, and why there's been no reply from Yamaha regarding this?

So not only are they disregarding the messages, but their policing the forums, to where users can't voice their opinions? Again I spent $7500.00 on Yamaha synths this year, I'd appreciate it, if you stop deleting my posts. And how about an answer to this issue that many of us have been dealing with since theoriginal Montage and now the Montage M series as well.

 

Yamaha how about a solution to the soundmondo issues, why is this so hard for you to offer the performances for the customers who cannot connect with soundmondo ?   >> and go
